A teen driver returned to the site of a fatal hit-and-run accident late Wednesday in Avon.

Robert L. Blakenship, 36, was walking east in the 9700 block of U.S. 36 about 10 p.m. when he was struck by an eastbound vehicle operated by 19-year-old Charles A. Parrett, according to a news release from the Avon Police Department.

Parrett did not stop his vehicle after hitting Blakenship, police said.

Blakenship was transported to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead about an hour later, police said.

While investigators were collecting evidence from the crash, Parrett returned to the scene with his mother.

Police said Parrett is cooperating with detectives by giving a statement and submitting to a drug recognition examination. Parrett's vehicle and cellphone are also being processed for evidence.
